Diverticulosis symptoms
Posted: 03-27-08 16:36pm

I had a catscan recently, and I have diverticulosis and a fatty liver.
I know what I have to do with my fatty liver, Cut out fat!, but it seems
like I always have trouble with my colon. I have had loose bowels, since I can remember. I thought it was Housewifes disease, whenever I would go
shopping, it would happen. I know where everyones bathroom is, and i'm
so tired of that. I had a colonoscopy, and the camera pill, showed ulcers in my small intestines, and now this other. I am taking pentasa,(500mg),2
pills 4 times a day, and I still have loose bowels. I recently had pains across my lower abdomen, and thats why they suggested the cat scan.
If anyone has any suggestions for me, I would appreciate it.
By the way, what is Diverticulosis? Hope to hear from anyone soon about my health problems. June1968

Have you ever requested or submitted a microbiological examination of the stool in order to exclude intestinal infection as a possible diagnosis?

Have you performed an occult blood test during the last round of medical examinations?
